Image of Salt, not of the place itself.

The first factory was set up in 1846 beside the Monar canal and in 1850 came the spinning mill that Joan de Coma i Cros would end up buying; in 1920 he concentrated all his production there and the village went from three hundred to more than two thousand five hundred inhabitants.
